Hey, it's Caroline! In this week's solo episode, I’m opening up about my unique volleyball journey, from my late start in the sport to facing some of the toughest challenges in college. I share what it was like to go from an award-winning high school team with a strong, supportive coaching staff to a collegiate program that struggled with leadership and expectations—a contrast that really hit hard during my career-ending injury.

We’ll explore how these experiences taught me invaluable lessons about trusting myself, seeking growth in every situation, and redefining success on my own terms. If you’re an athlete, coach, or even a parent, tune in for insights on finding balance in youth sports, handling adversity, and remembering that every experience—good or bad—comes with a lesson.
